Converted my stock RX470s 6xGPU TB85 to the 12xGPU Biostar TB250-BTC PRO
Got it to work with 11 GPUs on smOS.
Will continue to trouble shoot after dinner and test with nvOC with 12 x Zotac 1070 Mini -- cant wait.
If I have time I will try the 2 Claymore instances/windows with RX470 and 1070s; 6 x GPUs in each session in Windows.\

what coins are the most profitable at this time?

Thats the wrong question.
You should ask yourself "What coin that is at low diff ATM will be more profitable for me to sell when the slump ends?"
Now is the perfect opportunity to buy or mine and build yourself a nice portfolio by September when the investors will start pouring money into crypto again.
So, Jared and Philip, how come your are still selling instead of holding?

yes that's what i meant. I wanna start mining, but don't know what to mine in that state of mind.

something easy to mine, to hold for better times.

you want to mine and hold an off coin in the hopes it will score later correct?

nothing wrong with that idea.

So here is the way to do that.

tell us what gear you have.

Do you have a decent psu?
Do you have a video card?
Do you have a mobo?

You can get any cheap 4 gb card

just the one and mine a shit coin directly to an exchange just hold the coins you mine.

this card will do

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137056

this style of mining is low cost.

you may end up with 50 different coins. 10 of each.

after a month of mining.

put them all on sale at 100x-200x the price you mined them for. if one comes in you do okay.

When I said selling, I meant still mining on nicehash/zpool.
Digibyte or LBRY or... now that is the question.... who will be the first to rise from the ashes come fall?
I have no doubt about ZEC/ETH recovering, but they are difficult to mine.
~~What to mine, the perennial question~~
Only for those that started a mere six months ago, you silly ass.

Why do I auto convert to btc?

Simple I can sell btc into cash on coinbase.

If I buy a coin on spec I buy a coin at 0.000001 btc a coin or less

Say 10000 coins for 0.01 total
and list at 0.00002 a coin
if it goes there total btc = 0.20

If I have 5 coins like that I spent only 0.05 btc if one comes in for .20 btc I net .15 btc

I stopped selling all gpus.
I left myself with 10 1080 ti's .

I sold enough coins to pay all bills.

Is it just me or is GPU mining dying a very quick death?

It's just you - we've been in an incredible surge the last 3 months or so, now things have corrected some and there might be a shakeout happening a bit sooner than I expected.
GPU mining is STILL a ton more profitable than it was last year at this time though.

Quote from: philipma1957 on July 12, 2017, 09:33:50 AM

I offer you this for fear there is big money in the game over 100 billion in coin and gear.

Intel
Amd
Nvidia
Corsair
Evga
Sapphire
Zotac
Asrock
Asus
Biostar
Dell
HP

Intel, Dell, and HP don't belong on that list. Intel isn't selling many if any HIGH PROFIT CPUs to miners, Dell and HP don't sell systems suited for mining at all.

Corsair is iffy - not all that many miners that like their power supplies, especially to the large number that talk about using EVGA.

AMD is without doubt #1 on that list by quite a bit, between GPU chipsets sold AND some extra CPUs sold.

I don't think Phil is saying "invested" so much as "sales driven up noticeably by sales to miners".

and many companies have a vested interest in selling us pc's for mining.

For doubt I offer you this the list of companies above do not want gpu mining to fail.

So for now simply under clock under volt and thread water.

For the btc split use some gear for core wallets.

I built a new core 14

I am updating this core 11 to a 14.
I can only have one online at a time
but I will have 2 core wallets

lastly I sold enough coins to pay all mining bills and to have money to buy back coins if there is a real crash.

When do you think these companies will pump? If they overinvested in the mining, they might be in big trouble.

Hello guys, i'm new to the mining business, bad timing for what i've seen in this thread Undecided

I've got my KFA2 GTX 1060 6G at a stable 24 MH/s Eth (W10) and i wonder what would be the most profitable thing to mine with it. (and if you have any advice about it, it would be awesome.

)

I'm considering building a rig but don't really know what would be the best GPU to buy, any advice? i'm living in EU and considering investing about 2,5K€ (6 or 8 GPU). The goal been first, not loose any money over it, then try to earn some while having fun discovering. Cheesy

Quote from: ToTheMoon888 on July 12, 2017, 12:16:50 AM

The profitability of Ethereum mining is highly correlated to the profitability of all gpu mining. As Ethereum becomes less profitable, people switch their rigs to other coins, which in turns makes their difficulty go up.
Ethereum's difficulty is going up exponentially, and I am also hearing there will be a halving within a month (is this true)?

Of course there is some equilibrium. Eventually mining becomes unprofitable enough that many quit and the difficulty goes down. But the only players left competing will be those with sub 4 cent electricity and those who have access to big bulk discounted deals on GPUs and other parts. I assume that the ROI will be around 12-16 months when this happens and that will probably be as bad as it gets.

It seems like the only thing that can spark a resurgence in GPU mining is if the price of coins go way up. And I'm thinking at least 5x higher than they are now (which is very possible).

Would like to hear some of your thoughts on the future of GPU mining and the best strategies moving forward.

Hey guys, would be great to hear your thoughts on the matter. i read a few posts on the fork in bitcoin but couldn't understand really well, ty.

FUD = Fear, uncertainty and doubt

Right now that is king for crypto coins.

Fear = those that bet their left nut on the bull run are overextended and scared shitless.
Doubt = those that made a few bad moves doubt what they did.

Uncertainty = no one really knows where the coins will shift how prices will hold up etc.

Ty for that insight, but more personnal, what about my first quote? could you help me a bit,give me some leads? i'm kind of in the dark right now...

i tried Eth and Zcash, just know some other coins by name. I figured it would be better to start mining something easier with just one card, for the fun, and hold it hoping one day it reaches some high spikes.

In the meantime, I was thinking about building a rig on Eth, but not so much anymore considering it dropped quite a lot these past few days. it's a big investment at the time with the shortage on GPU.

But the only players left competing will be those with sub 4 cent electricity and those who have access to big bulk discounted deals on GPUs and other parts. I assume that the ROI will be around 12-16 months when this happens and that will probably be as bad as it gets.

It seems like the only thing that can spark a resurgence in GPU mining is if the price of coins go way up. And I'm thinking at least 5x higher than they are now (which is very possible).

Would like to hear some of your thoughts on the future of GPU mining and the best strategies moving forward.
